Clip 7: Going Farming! | In Defense of Food
Learn how in certain neighborhoods it’s very difficult to find fresh, healthy, affordable food. See how some schools are responding by giving students opportunities to get excited about growing, preparing, and eating plant-based food. Educators like Steve Ritz in the Bronx are fed up with seeing their kids getting sick and have found creative ways to help students grow food for themselves and their communities. This can happen anywhere from abandoned lots to hydroponic growing towers in a youth job-training program.
